Paul riding the worm was more to demonstrate his acceptance and alignment with the fremen society. Don’t need any special powers to ride, but does need technique and offworlders would never be taught to do it.

This further proves I know shit about the Dune series.

But the film was quite lackluster in its visuals doing something expressive and new, and I didn't appreciate the amount of musical recycling that was done.
